4 out of 5 stars Cade's not your run of the galaxy Skywalker   November 22, 2008
Claws of the Dragon continues Cade Skywalker's journey to find himself. He flies by his own moral compass, chief rule of which is - no one dies for me. It's a good code to keep if you have a lifestyle like Cade.

His friends are loyal to a fault, and once again, a mysterious stranger comes to haul his butt out of the sith-set fires. All in all, a neat story that takes little to no time at all to read. However, if you really like comic art, it's full of pretty pics to keep you happy for a second or third read through.



5 out of 5 stars Wish they came out quicker   October 15, 2008
I like this series I wish they would put it into regular novel form. Sometimes hard to follow all the characters. I enjoy it greatly though.


3 out of 5 stars Not exactly what I expected   September 8, 2008
The story is seems a little bit awkward. The characters are not well developed. And some elements of the story are just like parachutes: they just drop down on it. But overall is a good story, not great. You will be forgetting it in a short time.


5 out of 5 stars Star Wars, the Next Generation   August 11, 2008
I am hooked on this one..not that I am a comic fan, but the story line, the intrigues...have me wanting for more.


4 out of 5 stars John Ostrander gets better and better   August 5, 2008
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

In the 80's John Ostrander's Suicide Squad was on of the best dark superhero books around. In the 90's his horror superhero book 'The Spectre' was one of the strongest takes on the character yet.

So it's no surprise that in the 00's his dark take on the future of the Star Wars universe would be so good.

He continues to show his skill at developing memorable characters in a short amount of time and keeping multiple storylines going. In this volume the corruption of Cade Skywalker continues and we learn more about the villain of the book. The art remains as good as ever with aliens and humans coming to life.

This series works for both casual fans of Star Wars and for the obsessive fans who know every supporting character from every expanded universe book. That really shows Ostrander's skill at explaining and developing stories.

I'm hungry for the next volume.
